To analyze the status of antiretroviral therapy (ART), survival outcomes, and influencing factors among HIV-infected children in Guangxi.
A retrospective cohort study was conducted, incorporating data from HIV-infected children aged ≤14 years in Guangxi, including treatment status, survival time, and influencing factors. Logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards regression models were employed for statistical analysis.
A total of 472 HIV-infected children were included, with 27 deaths reported. All children received ART. Factors such as age and clinical stage at diagnosis influenced the risk of delayed initiation of treatment. Survival analysis revealed that baseline CD4+ T-cell levels, clinical stage, and treatment regimen were key determinants of survival time. Children with baseline CD4+ T-cell counts >350 cells/μL had longer survival time compared to those with counts <200 cells/μL (aHR=0.31, 95%CI: 0.13-0.74). Children in WHO clinical stage IV had shorter survival times than those in stage I (aHR=3.22, 95%CI: 1.24-12.2). Additionally, children treated with the 3TC+ABC+LPV/r regimen had shorter survival time than those treated with the 3TC+AZT+EFV regimen (aHR=4.26, 95%CI: 1.16-15.61).
The coverage of ART among HIV-infected children in Guangxi is high, with relatively favorable survival rates. However, efforts should be intensified to educate caregivers and initiate treatment early, optimize treatment regimens, and improve quality of life.
